LBJ is much more Magic in playlist, than Erving and even further than Bird. Average shooters, great mental ability, more willing passer and often times flashy. Bird was a lethal shooter and shutdown defender. Erving's prime were the ABA as far as I have read and can tell from footage comparisons but in his Sixers game you can tell he would love to post up, put the ball in the floor and just knock down an slightly undersized defender.
